with just a 50 shot (if the engine could hold it) you would make more than 250whp, just due to the fact that you are cooling off the air from 100 degrees to -175 degrees. That alone will add 30-40 whp then you add the 50 shot. Thats a big increase.
Just slap a 20 or 35 shot on there to make 230whp.

Rep Power: 312 Dont worry, i will test it out for you guys. ok?
I am soooo serious. I have a direct port kit sitting about 16 inches from here. And a single fogger kit next to that, and a plate system next to that.
I like Nitrous. lol

Rep Power: 0 that's a wierd dyno... where RPM should be they have MPH. I guess you could get RPMs from that, but then you'd have to know what gear you were on and the diameter of your wheel during the run.
Once you get RPMs, then you can just plug in the HP at that RPM with this formula: torque = HP * 5252 / RPM
Your HP and torque should cross each other at 5252 RPMs. If it doesn't then something is wrong.

Rep Power: 312 different dyno's use different calculations. All of them are not TQ*5250 = whp. They use different calculations to make use of different parts on the dyno, and they usually come really close to the industry standard for accuracy.

Rep Power: 0 ok here's what I got... I think it's right but if it isn't oh well.. it's free.
The final gear ratio is off of a civic coupe manual EX which is 4.41.
Third gear ratio is 1.24. If you look between 70 and 75 mph, that is where 5252 RPMs is and that is where your torque and hp cross.
So according to the graph max torque is around 192 ft/lbs at around 4100rpms.
I guessed your wheel diameter from the tire calculator on this site. I used 24.8 inches on the equations. A difference of 1 inch can mean a difference of about 8-10 ft/lb of torque in the calculation.

Rep Power: 0 ok where can i order my sf turbo and what setup would be recommended. i have stock internals, and only mods left after turbo would be aem cam gear, cat back exhaust. if possible i would want a turbo back cat-less exhaust 2.5 in. in wi certain places don't have emissions testing 
a single cam. 1.7 honda engine.. able to handle all that..50 shot of nitrous, even turbo charged..did i say on a single cam?wow... i don't wanna test my luck on my investment..well my moms investment for me... when i graduate college, hopefully in a two years, amma loose this single cam banger and get a turbo charged car...

Bigger turbo T3 vs T3T4E
Bigger turbos work more efficient and crate less heat than smaller turbos. They however take longer to spool.
